VMC/IMC Session – Thursday, October 23rd

EAA240 VMC/IMC Club Meeting

Thursday, October 23rd, 6pm
EAA240 Chapter Hangar

Sharing ideas, concepts and experiences in better flying

Join us Thursday, October 23rd for another IMC & VMC Club session, starting at 6pm. We’ll discus a few scenarios related to both VMC and IMC flying. All Chapter members – pilots and non-pilots – are invited to attend this session led by Robert Huxster. We’ll go through the scenarios and share flight experiences, with the goal being for all of us to learn something new. 


The session includes the use of EAA National-provided scenarios and videos. Video topics for this session will include: “Double Trouble” in a Twin and “Dark Arrival” with no runway lights seen at minimums. We’ve worked with the FAA Safety Team to receive WINGS credit for the event.

In preparation for the meeting, here are a couple questions that we will discuss:

Question: You’re flying a personal aircraft under Part 91 and wish to carry some fireworks that will be used for celebration at a private party. Can you legally transport the fireworks in your airplane?

Question: You’re a non-instrument rated pilot, and have contacted ATC in an emergency situation and have been given vectors to an airport where you can make an emergency landing. What should you do if it appears the vector may take you into IMC?
